Animal Farm: Windmill

blue windmill animation

The windmill represents the industrialization of Russia.
The purpose of the windmill was to make work easier and bring electricity to the farm.
The first person to suggest building the windmill was Snowball, AKA Trotsky.
All the animals were conflicted on whether or not to support the windmill or oppose it.
Napoleon, AKA Stalin, opposed the construction of the windmill.
Napoleon runs Snowball out of the farm and makes everyone believe the windmill was his idea.
First attempt to build the windmill failed because of a storm and Napoleon accused Snowball of destroying it.
The second and last attempt to build the windmill also fails because of the battle.
